Hi checked my eggs incubating this morning to find one egg was hatching and the baby was half way out but did not look so good. I did not touch it because i don't want to interfer. Went to work and when i came home it had escaped the egg and was just laid listless in a corner of the egg box. I know they will be exhausted when they hatch. Should i just leave it alone and see what happens or is there anything i can do. The other eggs are not showing any signs of hatching at the moment. The eggs are on 58 days.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you
Sheila
